9 out of 10 times, a check engine light is emmissions related. You probably have an EVAP canister with a leak somewhere. It will not effect the performance of your Jeep and you should be fine. Enjoy your vacation and have your dealership give it a look when you get back.

Mine came on today the tube that went from the evap to the gas tank was loose and I took the tube off that was filled with mud so it wouldn't lock in fully so I cleaned it and put it back tighten my gas cap and disconnected my battery and it was gone hopefully it stays off!

Cycle the ignition without starting the Jeep really fast like 4 times....can't really remember exactly how many times off the top of my head

My Check Engine light on my '08 JK has been coming on, and going off for about a week now (on one day, off the next), and my mechanic said that it is the Catalytic converter gone bad. IT is still under the 8yr/80K mile warranty, and I'm getting the dealer to fix it this week for free. But the parts are hard to get, so call your dealersip to make sure they can get the parts.

I'll give an update when it is fixed.

Just in case .... You can always go to one of the big parts stores and a lot of times they will come hook up a scanner and print out the codes from you jeep for free. I ain't sayin anything .... Im just sayin. Can come in handy when out if town .
